Installation

To avoid property damage or possible injury,

follow basic precautions, including the

following:

• Consult a plumber to connect 1⁄4”O.D. copper

tubing to household plumbing to assure

compliance with local codes and ordinances.

• Confirm water pressure to water valve is between

35 and 100 pounds per square inch, 20 pounds

per square inch without filter.

•Do not use a self-piercing or 3⁄16”saddle valve.

Both reduce water flow and can become clogged

over time, and may cause leaks if repair is

attempted.

• Tighten nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.

Finish tightening nuts with pliers and wrenches.

Do not over-tighten.

• Wait two to three hours before placing refrigerator

into final position to check and correct any water

leaks. Recheck for leaks after 24 hours.

• Verify the copper tubing under the sleeve is

smooth and free from defects. Do not reuse an

old sleeve.

CAUTION

Materials Needed

•1⁄4”outer diameter flexible copper tubing

• Shut-off valve (requires a 1⁄4”hole to be drilled into

water supply line before valve attachment)

•Adjustable wrench (2)

•1⁄4”hex nut driver

Notes:

• Use copper tubing only for installation. Plastic is

less durable and can cause damage.

• Add 8’ to tubing length needed to reach water

supply for creation of service loop.

1. Create service loop with

copper tubing (minimum 2’

diameter). Avoid kinks in the

copper tubing when

bending the service loop.

Do not use plastic tubing.

2. Remove plastic cap from water valve

inlet port.

3. Place brass nut (A) and sleeve (B)

on copper tube end as illustrated.

Reminder: Do not use an old

sleeve. The nut and sleeve are

provided in the Use and Care

packet.

4. Place end of copper tubing into

water valve inlet port. Shape

tubing slightly. Do not kink – so

that tubing feeds straight into inlet

port.

2’ diameter

minimum

5. Slide brass nut over sleeve and

screw nut into inlet port.

Place adjustable wrench on nut

(1) attached to plastic waterline

and maintain position.

Using second adjustable wrench

turn the lower nut (2)

counterclockwise and fully

tighten while holding the upper

nut in place.

Important: Do not over-tighten. Cross threading

may occur.

6. Pull on tubing to confirm

connection is secure.

Connect tubing to frame with

water tubing clamp (C) and

turn on water supply.Check

for leaks and correct if

necessary. Continue to

observe the water supply

connection for two to three

hours prior to moving the

refrigerator to itspermanent

location.

7. Monitor water connection for 24 hours. Correct

leaks, if necessary.

Opening and Closing Your

Fresh Food Doors

Your new refrigerator is

uniquely designed with two

fresh food doors. Either door

can be opened or closed

independently of one another.

There is a vertically-hinged

section on the left fresh food

door. When the left door is

closed, the hinged section

automatically forms a seal

between the two doors, when

both doors are closed.

When the left door is opened,

the hinged seal automatically folds inward so that it is

out of the way.

Installation

Toavoid electrical shock which can cause severe

personal injury or death, DONOTattempt to

remove the hinged seal from the fresh food

section.

WARNING

To avoid possible product damage, ALWAYS verify

that the hinged seal is folded against the edge of

the door prior to closing.
